ORIGINAL: kdsub Has anyone ever had the cane split or splay the skin...not just bruise? I sure have...It leaves scars that are hard to explain. Only once. Every now and again I'll get a blood blister, particularly if two strokes cross. I can't hold position during a caning, and I live in East Jesus on a small farm, so we throw an Australian saddle over the whipping stand and I'm restrained across that. That adds he safety feature that I'm not going to jerk wrong as the cane comes down and accidentally catch it across the kidneys or someplace else I don't want it. The saddle itself also provides a "stop" so if my Lady were to slip on a stroke it won't go too deep as the cane will hit the cantle and stop before going very deep.. When we were setting up the tack shed for canings, we both watched a number of videos of judicial canings and talked carefully about the very real damage you can get in a caning. Our joint goal is to get me to work at my desk job 9-5, M-F, so that sharply limits how much damage my Lady will administer where I sit! We both agree that cuts and blood blisters are to be avoided, though a bit of bruise is nice as a reminder after.
